DCNU Superman VS Kurse

Thor was created to be stronger than Hulk yet was never shown to be on panel, unless Gladiator actually showed planet destroying strength at that point it was just two strong bricks going at it, so your example falls flat.

Now the fact that Gladiator busted a planet with his fists shows that he was capable of that type of power. It is all canon so it counts towards their history. So again, Gladiator didn't hit Colossus or even anyone after the feat with planetary destroying force.

Continuity is continuity. There is no such thing as pre retcon Gladiator.

LOL, I didn't claim Gladiator was created to have planetary busting strength. I said he was claimed to be Superman's clone and equal. This is a fact. The writer wanted the fans to see Superman fight Colossus, nothing more.

Lol.

It's a fact now is it? Can you back it up with evidence that Claremont intended Gladiator to be Superman's clone and equal?

Colossus has fought Hulk and won for crying out loud. So why would it be far fetched if he tangled with Superman and loss?

bump

What does Gladiator have to do with this thread?

lol you lost it. You are confusing me with someone else.

I'll repost the conversation to get you up to speed:
Quan posted this

I posted this to show that Thor hurting Galactus in one comic doesn't mean he is at the same power level in another comic (Kurse comic)

You then chimed in (without understanding me and Quan's debate) with

So when you said, "...during a fight." You mean a forum fight. But me and Quan was talking about fights that happen in comics (not a forum fight).

Again, either Superman beats him up or he bfr him (if he can't beat him up). Either way Superman wins.

Kurse is beyond Thor though strength wise which isn't the case for Superman. Not at all.

Was Gladiator even a confirmed planet buster at this point? If this is the fight from the DP saga that was his 1st appearance (arc) iirc. He was even ko'd by Corsair of the Starjammers.

Yeah, during his fight against Colossus, he brought up him casually destroying planets.

Although I believe and have good evidence that Superman is still stronger than Kurse it's irrelevant. Superman has many ways to win. HV keep away tactics, speed blitz, bfr, etc.

It's common sense. Gladiator had the exact main power set as Superman.
You a writer, who are not allowed to have Superman in Marvel, want fans to see how a fight would go between a very popular strong metal character and the actual Man of Steel. So you create a Superman clone to achieve this.

Colossus has fought Hulk and won for crying out loud. So why would it be far fetched if he tangled with Superman and loss?

He askde for proof, not your speculation.
